Students of color and schools in low-income districts were hit hardest. There are many causes, and they resist easy remedies.
The consequences for some districts have been catastrophic. Earlier this year, a small charter school in Madison, Wisc.,, according to CNN. The Independence School District in Missouri switched to four-day weeks to attract more candidates, fearing it would not be able to fill all its vacancies.
“We are looking at all of the different levers and ways that we can raise the bar and address the teacher shortages ... including increasing teacher pay [and] scaling the high-quality, affordable educator programsOne of the most promising developments is the expansion of teacher apprenticeship programs, Marten said. These pay aspiring teachers to work in schools while they earn their college degrees and teacher certifications.
Milwaukee Public Schools opens this year with around 200 vacancies, a reduction from last year but still far above pre-pandemic levels. The dearth of local teacher candidates led district officials to start looking internationally for qualified educators. This year, schools in the city are set to hire 150 teachers from abroad, far more than in pre-pandemic years, when they would hire just a few, according to Michael Harris, the district’s senior director of talent management.
